Gm,C x4
 
    Gm                        C
I was walkin' down the street
 
    Gm                          C
Concentratin' on truckin' right
 
        Gm                       C
I heard a dark voice beside of me
 
          Gm                            C
And I looked 'round in a state of fright
 
        Gm
I saw four faces one mad
 
  C
A brother from the gutter
 
    Gm
They looked me up and down a bit
 
  C                  Gm  D  C
And turned to each other
 
I say
 
              Gm     D  C
I don't like cricket oh no
 
   D     Em  C
I love it
 
             Gm      D  C
I don't like cricket oh no
 
  D      Em  C
I love it
 
     A#maj

     A#maj
Don't you walk through my words
                            D, C, Gm, D, C, Gm, D, C
'Cause you ain't heard me out yet
 
               Gm                      C
Well he looked down at my silver chain
 
           Gm                   C
He said I'll give you one dollar
 
            Gm                     C
I said you've got to be jokin' man
 
         Gm                     C
It was a present from me mother
 
 
     Gm
He said I like it I want it
 
    C
I'll take it off your hands
 
          Gm
And you'll be sorry you crossed me
 
     C                               Gm  D  C
You'd better understand that you're alone
 
                 Gm  D  C
A long way from home
And I say
 
 
              Gm    D  C
I don't like reggae no no
 
  D       Em C
I love it
 
             Gm     D  C

Don't you walk through my words

          Gm                     C
I hurried back the swimmin' pool
 
        Gm           C
Sinkin' pina coladas
 
          Gm                       C
I heard a dark voice beside me say
 
          Gm                    C
Would you like something harder
 
              Gm
She said I've got it you want it
 
   C
My harvest is the best
 
           Gm
And if you try it you'll like it
 
    C                         Gm, D, C
